Manage episode 519479000 series 3006156
In today's episode, we battle and navigate through the background noise challenges that come with recording in a wine bar as we talk with Chris Upchurch at Studio 107 in Riverstone. Chris talks with us about his career as a winemaker, his first 100 point score at Upchurch Vineyard and the larger than life fun that IS the wine world! #HappyFriday! #ItsWineTime! #Cheersing
